Sosa (born December 25, 1950) is an American Republican Party politician who served in the New Jersey General Assembly from the 7th Legislative District from 1992 to 1994.[1][2] Sosa was the state's second Hispanic legislator, after Bob Menendez. Sosa had served on the Mount Holly Township Council and as the township's mayor.[3] Together with Frank Catania, Sosa was one of the major sponsors of a measure that reduced the state sales tax from 7% to 6%, a measure that reduced taxation on residents by $600 million, as part of the Republican effort to roll back the $2.8 billion in tax increases that had been made by the Democratic-controlled legislature under Governor James Florio.[3] He has been a resident of Westampton Township, New Jersey.[4] References1. ^{{cite web|last=Gray |first=Jerry |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1991/11/14/nyregion/a-legislature-with-a-less-urban-tone.html |title=A Legislature With a Less Urban Tone |publisher=The New York Times |date=November 14, 1991 |access-date=December 20, 2017}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Sosa, José F.}}2. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.newspapers.com/newspage/145940290/ |title=Asbury Park Press from Asbury Park, New Jersey on December 11, 1991 · Page 3 |publisher=Newspapers.com |date=December 11, 1991 |access-date=December 20, 2017}} 3. ^King, Wayne.

Accessed December 21, 2017. "As expected, the Republicans introduced legislation today to roll the 7 percent sales tax back to 6 percent, but they refused to say how they would replace the estimated $608 million in revenue that would be lost.... Beyond that, neither Mr. Haytaian nor either of the tax rollback bill's two major sponsors, Frank Catania of Hawthorne, the Deputy Speaker of the Assembly, and Assemblyman Jose F. Sosa of Passaic, provided any specifics about how the money would be made up through spending cuts." 4. ^1 Sosa, José F.
